Privacy Policy for a No-Code App
Building on Lovable, Bubble, or Webflow doesn't change your legal obligations. The law doesn't care how you built your app — it cares what your app does with user data.
Here's what you need to know if you've built (or are building) a no-code product.
The no-code misconception
A lot of no-code builders assume that because their platform handles hosting, databases, and infrastructure, the legal side is also handled. It isn't.
Lovable, Bubble, and Webflow are your data processors. You are the data controller. That means the legal responsibility for what happens to your users' data sits with you — not with the platform.
What your privacy policy needs to cover
Your platform as a data processor
Your privacy policy needs to name the no-code platform you're using as a third-party data processor. If your Bubble app stores user data in Bubble's database, that's Bubble processing personal data on your behalf.
List:
- Lovable / Bubble / Webflow as infrastructure/hosting
- Any connected services: Supabase, Firebase, Airtable
- Authentication providers: Auth0, Clerk, Firebase Auth
- Analytics: PostHog, Mixpanel, Google Analytics
- Payment processors: Stripe, Lemon Squeezy
Third-party integrations
No-code apps typically connect to many services via API or native integrations. Each one that touches personal data needs to be disclosed.
Common ones to check:
- Email: Resend, SendGrid, Mailchimp
- Customer support: Intercom, Crisp
- Error tracking: Sentry
- CRM: HubSpot, Notion (if storing user data)
Data storage location
Where is your data actually stored? Bubble stores data in the US by default. Webflow's CMS is hosted on AWS. Supabase lets you choose a region.
Under UK and EU GDPR, if personal data is transferred outside the UK/EEA, you need to mention this in your privacy policy and confirm that adequate safeguards are in place (most major US platforms cover this via their own Data Privacy Frameworks).
User rights
Your privacy policy needs to tell users how they can:
- Request a copy of their data
- Request deletion
- Update or correct information
If your no-code app doesn't have a built-in account deletion flow, you need to provide a contact method (email) where users can make these requests — and you need to actually action them within 30 days.
Cookie situation for no-code apps
No-code platforms often add their own cookies and tracking. Webflow adds Google Analytics integration. Bubble has session cookies. Lovable apps may pull in tracking from integrated tools.
Check what cookies your platform and integrations are setting before writing your cookie policy — the default assumption is more than you'd expect.
The documents a no-code app needs
- Privacy Policy — required
- Terms and Conditions — required if users have accounts or pay
- Cookie Policy — required if any tracking is active
- Refund Policy — required if you're selling anything to UK consumers
